Matt Nagy and Dan Campbell make people pine for Mike Tomlin lol

It's the truth. Truly awful coaching there.

J Christ, with how badly he mismanaged the clock and TOs at the end of that game.

I almost wanted to check out a lions board so I could read the excuse of
"But coach cambell hasn't had a losing season yet"

For the record
since week 5, Ben has:

0 INTs only QB out of 39 QBs with over 50 passes to not have an INT
9 TDs
105 passer rating

looks like better then average numbers. why aren't we in first place?

At least those teams fan bases are going to see a new coach sooner than later.

Dumblin will be here till the 22nd century as well as Rooney Tunes who seems to have taken a page out of Bob Nuttings book of caring.

I know people are touting how good Ben has been, but fact remains for me that his arm is f***ed. He shotputs balls now...his throwing motion has become very short and compact, and he very clearly does not trust that elbow as he drops it and keeps it tucked now. It also doesn't help that his lower body mechanics have also been super wonky. He doesn't drive his lower body like he used to, which also takes zip and accuracy off of throws.

It's just crazy watching his decline and how much his mechanics have changed since being away with the elbow injury.

Because Roth is fat or something and holding back the prodigy’s offense.

Ten years from now we are going to look back on this time and wonder what the f*** Tomlin was doing hiring Canada.

My lasting memory of this guy will be of Roth in his twilight literally laughing at his play calling.

They tied the Lions. THE LIONS. My 90 year old grandma could QB a victory against the Lions

Since 2007;

The Bears have had 4 coaches, made it to the playoffs 3 times, and have had 10 .500 or less seasons.
The Lions have had 7 coaches, made it to the playoffs 3 times, and have had 10 .500 or less seasons.

Changing coaches all the time seems to have really worked out for them.

The Steelers have had 1 coach, made it to the playoffs 9 times, and have had 3 .500 seasons.

So now Tomlin has Steeler fans so desperate they are using the Lions and Bears as a benchmark.

The Steelers have three playoffs wins in a decade, and have back to back historical franchise playoff losses - all with some of the most talented rosters in the league over that span.

I guess when things get this embarrassing for such a once proud org, you have to reach deep and find consolation in not being Det/Chi.

It just goes to show that other teams hold the HC accountable except for this team.

 

[Mr Jiggyfly]

I thought this was pretty cool:

Among the 38 NFL wide receivers who have been thrown to the most according to Pro Football Focus, Johnson has the third-best drop percentage at 1.7%. Johnson has been thrown to 93 times and has 59 catches and one drop. Adding in qualifying NFL tight ends, only four players in the league have a better drop percentage.

Four Downs: A year after spate of drops, Diontae Johnson sure-handed for Steelers

DJ worked his ass off this off-season to improve his hands and it’s paying off - big props.

Also on the cusp of his first 1k season if he stays healthy.

 

[JTG]

Casey Hampton is "Little Snack" compared to this dude.

 

[Andy99]

It would be very Steeler like to have big game at Cincy followed by a poor showing the next few games to take them out of the PO picture lol….

 

[CallArnoldSlick]

Kenny Pickett's 40 TD passes were the most in the Power Five conferences during the regular season

It was a special season from him and Addison. It’s a shame the defense played like it did against Western Michigan and Miami.

 

[Andy99]

Whoever thought the Steelers could stop the run today was crazy lol…

 

[VanIsle]

Bush missed tackle on the 25 yard run and offside. Terrible start.

Punish him. . . What a huge missed chance.

 

[ziggyjoe212]

Did they already bench Bush after 2 plays?

 

[TNT87]

I see the defense picked up where they left off in the last game.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Steelers getting owned by 2nd year qb's lately.

We can only hope
